Misgendering potential aside, bro, dude, man, etc., all serve to normalize and reflect societies male-by-default viewpoint. Calling someone a feminine equivalent is seen as insulting and demeaning, or specific only to women. I love misogyny
Gotta normalize comrade ๐
my coworker calls everyone queen, which is preferable to the male-by-default viewpoint but also introduces monarchist titles which is a bummer
Also would make me uncomfortable tbh, queen has specific connotations that i dont like.
call everyone chica
"sis" as an equally gender neutral word alongside "dude"
